Private [Public] Transportation: Matatus & Buses in Nairobi ...

According to the UN: Matatus and Buses: Public transport is not readily available or reliable and should certainly be avoided at peak hours as most transportation is filled to more than its capacity. You are strongly advised not to travel in these at all, however exciting they might look. In the case of matatus, they are often unroadworthy, are usually badly driven and their accident record is appalling, particularly on up-country routes. Pickpockets are known to frequent both buses and matatus, which add to the hazards of traveling on them.

Well here is a sample of Matatus and Buses in Nairobi.

due to Michuki's laws the transportations are never filled past their capacity and they have seat belts nowadays. 5 years ago these facts were true but they are not true today

---not too sure what you said there...

Police enforce the laws (sort of) in the CBD and in rich areas, but the closer you get to the slums, the more people get crammed in the matatus. That I know to be true as I lived in the slum for 6 weeks (KIbera). And, I never saw a seat belt anywhere, ever!

This is white-centric eurocentric propaganda.

you neanderthals [whites] need to stop hating on black africa

if you think that public transport in the west is better then stay there.

why bother to visit poor 3rd world countries in africa. Stay in europe and enjoy your stolen ill gotten wealth.

and dont forget to tell us why europe and the usa are genocidal feudal capitalistic concrete jungles with no wildlife...because you wiped out all the wildlife in europe and the USA.
